[nikki.manalo]

Good Day! Please help me out

MAC OSX 10.7.5
Working without a word work file problem.

I upgraded my hard drive and transfered all my files from an 80 GB
hard drive to a 320 GB hard drive.. So I definitely have a lot of free
space.. My Memory is 2GB.. Everything was going fine until I opened a
homework of mine using Microsoft Word 2008. I read some stuff on the
net on how to fix it.. Did the Disk Utility thing, rebooted my mac a
couple of times and even reinstalled Microsoft Office.. My powerpoint
and Excel works fine..

Here's what came out when i did the terminal thing..

Sorry Nikki:

I see your message, but I simply would not dare to make any suggestions
until you describe what you are trying to do, and the commands you have
issued, in exacting detail.

When I see "when i did the terminal thing..." I just run in terror

The Terminal is your window directly into the operating system and it
carries out commands instantly, making the assumption that you know exactly
what you're doing.

If you don't, you can easily take out your entire system and all of your
files and data, in a single command

Cheers

yep like the old DOS command INIT. which meant Initialize The same as
Re-formating your hard drive. How many times I dealt with that when I
worked for school system. One reason I always kept a copy Of DOS 3.3
every here I went with me .
